De La Riva Sweep Using The Honey Hole
First, I'll admit, I haven't played enough with the Honey Hole technique, but I know someone that is really good at it and its been frustrating getting caught in it. I highly suggest trying it out.
In this Jiu Jitsu we have Dan Hale from Cobrinha BJJ showing off the Honey Hole from De La Riva. This position in can be used as a sweep or you can go for a submission using leg locks! While being in the DLR position and defending the knee slide, Dan holds on to his opponents collar and brings him over his hip. From there, he traps his opponents opposite leg with the honey hole. Instead of going for a leg lock, this time he uses it as a sweep, comes up on top and into side control with his underhook.
This popular position has been inspired by John Danaher who has taught his students Gordon Ryan, Nicky Ryan & Garry Tonon this amazing move.
